Keystone is a neat place to stay. It is with in an hour or less to most attractions. It is seasonal. Not much was open yet. We were a week early so don't plan to do anything till the end of May in town.

Keystone is a small active town. Perfect for tourists. Kids will love it. The town is very close to Mt. Rushmore, and not that far from Crazy Horse. Drive slowly, there are a lot of people running around.

A wonderful town, and close to Mt.Rushmore (3m). The town is a delight, much nicer and quieter than Deadwood.

It is a nice little town, I have been to the Sturgis motorcycle rally going on 20 years, and can say having my family come out on a non motorcycle trip and experiencing their joy for the area brings more joy to me. And Keystone is amazing!

We liked Keystone well enough, but we were a little bummed because we weren't there during peak travel season, so a lot of seasonal stuff wasn't open. There was plenty to do, just not everything we were hoping to do.

Keystone is a very nice small town. I felt safe. Since we visited at the end of the season places were starting to close down so our eating options were limited unless we wanted to drive to Rapid City.
"Our cabin was really nice and set on top of a little hill with a beautiful view of the mountain and trees. Its not the newest and shows a bit of age, but they had every convenience you need and the temperature in the room was very comfortable. I usually have trouble sleeping in hotels, but I slept real well on this firm bed. It is a little North of the main street, but it seems too noisy out there, and this cabin isn't far at all, so I would choose this place again. It is a good size for 2 adults and 2 kids, but 4 adults might be a stretch.
We had dinner here and it was all delicious. I had the apple gorgonzola salad, which was a generous serving and very fresh. The kona ribeye was very good and tender. OMG, the sweet potato casserole was awesome! My son's mashed potatoes were the creamiest we have ever had. We also got to try a shish kabob that had big chunks of bison, elk, and venison. I really appreciate the staff, here. Management was so gracious to accommodate our late arrival and did it with a smile. Our waiter was very helpful with choices and so friendly. Wonderful stay! Next time I will have to try their orange chicken because so many locals were ordering it!"
"We really enjoyed our stay. The only bummer was that we seemed to be near a tent with teenagers and kids that were quite loud between 9 pm and 11 pm on a weekday."
"Our overall stay was excellent. Our bed was very comfortable and clean. Room was clean other than the carpet needed shampooed.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
We would definitely stay there again.
Convenient walking distance to the boardwalk, for food, shopping, and beverages."
